What is OpenCL and what are its top alternatives?

It is the open, royalty-free standard for cross-platform, parallel programming of diverse processors found in personal computers, servers, mobile devices and embedded platforms. It greatly improves the speed and responsiveness of a wide spectrum of applications in numerous market categories including gaming and entertainment titles, scientific and medical software, professional creative tools, vision processing, and neural network training and inferencing.
OpenCL is a tool in the Language Extensions category of a tech stack.

Top Alternatives to OpenCL

  • CUDA
    CUDA

    A parallel computing platform and application programming interface model,it enables developers to speed up compute-intensive applications by harnessing the power of GPUs for the parallelizable part of the computation. ...

  • OpenGL
    OpenGL

    It is a cross-language, cross-platform application programming interface for rendering 2D and 3D vector graphics. The API is typically used to interact with a graphics processing unit, to achieve hardware-accelerated rendering. ...

  • OpenCV
    OpenCV

    OpenCV was designed for computational efficiency and with a strong focus on real-time applications. Written in optimized C/C++, the library can take advantage of multi-core processing. Enabled with OpenCL, it can take advantage of the hardware acceleration of the underlying heterogeneous compute platform. ...

  • Xtend
    Xtend

    It is a flexible and expressive dialect of Java, which compiles into readable Java 8 compatible source code. You can use any existing Java library seamlessly. The compiled output is readable and pretty-printed, and tends to run as fast as the equivalent handwritten Java code. ...

  • Helix
    Helix

    Helix allows you to write Ruby classes in Rust without having to write the glue code yourself. ...

  • PostSharp
    PostSharp

    It adds design patterns and thread safety to C# and VB so you can avoid boilerplate and focus on business value. ...

  • Cursive
    Cursive

    It is the Clojure(Script) IDE that understands your code. Advanced structural editing, refactorings, VCS integration and much more, all out of the box. ...
